In the gallery hanging a new work. Four more sold today so I need to get some time to create and get new ones for those. They take about 2-3 hours each to do. (Yes, I climbed a ladder in heels. Yes, I was very careful.)

Even logging in as a Merchant is slow right now.

In addition to @animats, I think there is also a shopping region at Insilico as well for cyber stuff.

Welcome to the madhouse! Bauhaus would be my first suggestion. They're vaguely neo-Asian inspired and have mostly the dressy look I think you're looking for with a bit of edge. Nothing there though for cyberpunk I wouldn't say, though they have or two in that style. Maybe also try some of the Asian-themed or cyber events. Later edit: I should have added, if you can skip Petite and go regular Lara, a lot more options will open up.

Granted. There's now a soft ice cream truck outside your house blaring obnoxious carnie music on an endless loop and ringing bells 24/7 that makes you the most hated person on your street. I wish I could remember people's names better.

Beautiful shot.

This is a superb look!

I can't tell you how many times I've sketched that work in RL.

Love, love, love Scarlet Creative homes.

Sunset over my sim. Cat Island up front, gallery right, my home at the back behind the gallery, and the marine station behind Cat Island. Thanks to @Rowan Amore for all the help with EEP stuff, I finally have a nice custom environment set up for my 1/4 sim. The marked canal allows access from the sim behind Bjorn into Blake cause why block? Drop by my gallery or Cat Island anytime. Walk around the far side of the gallery past the subway entrance to find the secret zen garden.

A lot of folks have mentioned almost all my favourite stores for clothes that I also find are not overtly sexual, at least in my definition, so I wont repeat them. I don't find the clothes "mostly" overtly sexual, but that's out there if that's your look. There are also a large number of major stores that offers a wider range of everything from average casual to much sexier, places like Blueberry, Seniha, Bauhaus, Queen, Ricielli, and even Hilly Haalan. In these places you can find stuff that's very sexy, and also stuff that's run-of-the-mill ordinary. My style is largely not overtly sexual, but I do manage some revelaing outfits (and even some formal gowns) that push the boundaries a bit, for those times I need that look. I say overtly because redheads, you know that's just the nature of the girl. There are retailers who push sexual, often because of a theme; for example, there are enough sexy Kawaii-themed stores like Candy Kitten, Rebel Pill, Lunar etc also to fulfill everyone's revealing needs who like that specific fashion style. That's what makes SL cool, the variety.

The artist sims based on their names. I had a place once there across from a Linden.

Yup. I agree some of the specialty/theme stores might not work with Lara, but even there I've never had an issue finding cyberpunk or Neo-Asian styles ever. I've yet to see any of the large, really well known mainstream stores drop Lara, and most of the really good smaller quality places haven't dropped Lara either. Here I'm thinking of the dozens of shops like Ecru, Mimikri, Just Because, amias, Neve, Poison Rouge, NX, Riceielli, Seniha, 1313, ValentinaE, erratic, COCO, Belle Epoque, fashionably dead, Bauhaus, Dead Doll, Tres Blah, Giz Seorn, Glitzz, etc. These are the kind of shops I hope pick up the Lara X thing and run hard with it. Happy to toss Lindens their way to update a Lara X wardrobe.

Oh, you fiend.

Granted. Not only do you have the stunning teeth of a 20 year old toothpaste advertisement model, you've also discovered the one secret that would let everyone have perfect teeth for a lifetime, that would drive every dentist out of business. In response, the American Dental Association puts a hit out on you, driving you underground, without Internet access, and alone forever. I wish I understood what @animats, @Henri Beauchamp, and Monty Linden were talking about in the "when does the simulator send EstablishAgentCommunication to the viewer?" thread.

I've messaged you re: Epimetheus though it would be my male avatar buying (due to my tier limits). Very nice location but changed my mind, thanks.

Cute neko lion's paradise. Canvas for self expression.

I'd be all over that body. Wait, that came out really wrong sounding. I'd get into that body. Nope. I'll just shut up now. Is the new Lara thingy body out yet?????

We all luvz you.

OP ... It's one thing to be shorter or more petite than someone else, sure. But this isn't often about height, it's about overall appearance. I have no issue with the myriad of 4'10" kawaii curvy avatars at every adult club I visit, and the owners obviously don't either. The problem is the obvious waif thin pre-teens with baby faces that clearly look like they're under the age of 16 (or 13 in many cases) all loudly shouting "18+ IRL" in their avatars, like that's some sort of get of of jail free card. Who gets to judge who looks under 16? The sim owners, very simple. And me, too. I've been a practicing artist for 45+ years and have done more portraits and life drawing than you could possibly imagine. I'm pretty sure that in 99% of the cases I can tell an avatar who looks 13 year old from an 18 year old, even in this land of fantasy. No one's asking you to conform to anyone's standards. What they asking is to respect whatever rules the owners have in place. If they wanna ban you, they can. Just smile and leave, no need to throw a tantrum if asked. And speaking of illogical, don't conflate the idea of banning someone for the sexuality, gender, ethnicity etc which IS against the rules with under-age avatars. Straw men won't work here. And as @Rowan Amore said, most places now take into far more than height when deciding to ask someone to change or leave.

I do prefer the moniker Lara Original to Lara Classic.

Same. Every time I see a new post here I'm like "OMG it's out!!!" Stop posting!

Granted, then you post something on social media that offends 95% of your teenage fanbase and you turn from wonder-author to pariah overnight (too soon?). I wish I could still hit a baseball as well as I could when I was 18.

Great sailing parcel indeed.

A decent selection of Lara X clothing on launch, and support for the body from my favourite brands. The ability to transfer Lindens to another SL resident via my web page, and not be required to be in-world. This is mainly to get my male alts allowance sent to me, but useful for everyone I suspect. Inventory sorting via my webpage would also be amazing per @Cinnamon Mistwood.
